Per @colintheshots this is by design so closing.

some notes for reference:
This is a new feature of later versions of Android. It's deliberate.
There's three settings, not two.
We just hide that OS default on versions that don't offer it,
It's different because we cannot support it on older versions.
it's there because we don't yet know what they want, but their OS tells us what colors it is using.
It'll change theme by time of day or when connected to Android Auto in some cases
In Android 10, the user can enable Force Dark in OS settings and it'll stay Dark theme in that mode
